If you’re not considering the stunning Catskills views, gorgeous twentieth century Arts and Crafts style rooms, or the outdoor activities (hiking, yoga, and biking, to name a few), then the best part of staying at Deer Mountain Inn is the food. On site, Michelin-starred chef Ryan Tate creates a seven-course tasting menu, most of which is foraged from the edible garden and surrounding grounds. The menu changes constantly to reflect what’s in season (past offerings have included local trout with foraged truffles and salt-baked turnips with buttermilk), paired with the most perfect wine list. For foodies looking to venture out, nearby Germantown, Hudson, and Livingston (all within a 40-minute drive) offer some of the best places to eat in the Catskills, including goop favorite WM Farmer & Sons.
